Fenton, Cecil Carvell, 82 passed away peacefully, January 17, 2018 in the QE11 Health Sciences Centre, VG site, Halifax, NS.
Cecil was born, the youngest of seven children to Hadley and Hazel (Josee) Fenton in Country Harbour, Nova Scotia, July 14, 1935.

He is survived by his wife, Janet, of 53 years, his daughter Shauna, her husband Tim Slauenwhite, and his son, Carvell and wife Lynette (Pardy) Fenton, and grandchildren, Hannah, Rachael and Isabell. Also by his sisters, Audrey Langley, Phyllis Jennings, and Doreen (Bill) Webber and brother Kenneth, brothers and sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews, grand nieces and nephews and dear friends that are like family. Gone on before him were his brother Lloyd and sister Daisy Sutherland, brothers-in-law, Wilfred Langley and Malcom Jennings and nephews Claude Langley and Brent Sutherland.

Cecil moved to New Glasgow to work with Eastern Woodworkers at 16 years of age. Cecil also worked as carpenter, foreman and Millwork Estimator at Lenargo Industries for many years and later as Project Manager with the Pictou Regional Housing Authority. Cecil was an accomplished carpenter, mechanic, and musician and an avid gardener, outdoorsman and participant in his church community, the former Calvary Temple in New Glasgow. He loved his time spent in each of these pastimes and with all those who enjoyed them with him. You were all very special to him.

These details of Cecil's life can only begin to tell you about the man he was. Cecil was a faithful and loving husband to his wife, a patient and steady guide to his children, a wise and disciplined mentor to his students, a competent and calming influence to his coworkers, a valued and caring man to his friends and a faithful and honorable servant to his Lord.

Cecil demonstrated quiet integrity and righteousness to those who watched his life. He taught many of us who God is and on what we should base our lives (God's Word). If you loved Cecil, perhaps you should consider knowing His Savior. Cecil's life is not over. He has moved to his heavenly home and he will want to see you again.
"He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God." Micah 6:8.
The family would like to extend special thanks to the doctors and staff of the Pictou County Health Authority, especially Dr. Gregor MacLean for many years of care, to Dr. Onn Yik-Yong for his compassion that went above and beyond, to the Cobequid Health Centre and EHS staff, to the many VON nurses and workers from Bayshore who touched our lives, and to Community Care. Many thanks to Dr. Ismail Sharif, Dr. Kenneth West, Dr. S. Gabrielle Horne for their excellent care. Gratitude is also extended to Barbara Stewart, Carolyn Kelly, Dr. Erin Gorman-Corsten, Dr. David Dupere, Dr. Robert Horton of the Palliative Care Community team and all the residents, nurses and care providers of the Palliative Unit of the QEII. Your competence, care and compassion mean more than words can say.
There will be no visitation at the request of the family.
Private family interment will take place by the graveside at a later date.
Donations in Cecil’s memory can be made to the Gideons International or to the Cobequid Health Centre Foundation.
